Why it was recalled

Between July 2024 and June 2025, Philips Azurion R3.0 systems with a FlexArm stand were shipped without the Source-to-Skin Distance (SSD) Spacer. The SSD spacer is necessary to meet the FDA minimum source-skin distance requirement of 38 cm for standard fluoroscopy applications.

Root cause (FDA determination)

Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act

Action the firm took

Philips will send a customer notification to the users of the affected systems to alert them of the issue and provide the actions that should be taken to prevent risks to patients. Philips will contact customers to schedule a time for a Philips Field Service Engineer (FSE) to visit their site and install the SSD spacer to resolve the issue.
